Package: nagios3-common
Version: 3.0.1-1~bpo40+1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
I noticed that my nagios3 installation didn't manage to startup automatically at boot process.
After checking a little bit, I noticed that the command file /var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd still
exists after a reboot, but is not a pipe anymore, but a standart file.
dinhvan at nagios:~$ sudo ls -l /var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 115 2008-08-15 17:10 /var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd
I tried to use the init script of nagios 3.0.3 (from etch-backports), but it doesn't fix this issue.
I fixed it with the following workaround, but why the command file changing its type stays a mystery for me.
